SO MUCH FUN!!!

Our favorite beach to visit was Venice beach. The funniest thing happened there. STeve went into a cheesy store to buy a t-shirt & swim trunks (he left his other ones in the hotel room!). The clerk ended up putting 350.10 on our debit card. Steve was in the store forever - making sure the two clerks gave him the proper credit. They did not understand English - let alone a how to do a credit on the machine! So FUNNY! FINALLY Steve went behind the counter & SHOWED them how to do a credit! Ohhh!!! It was funny! I just double checked our account & it was was done right! HA!!! Good thing Steve knows how to run debit & credit machines! But, then again, Steve said "anyone can run those machines - just need to be able to understand & speak English!"

One of my favorite days was our trip to Venice Beach. For years and years I have enjoyed looking at the bouquet store Bountiful! Steve was so kind to take me there & let me browse & browse! So adorable! Thanks Steve!

This was the only rainy day of the whole trip, but we spent it under an awning trying to get on the "Price is RIght"! So much fun!! It was a long day - but we were able to get onto the show. The announcer called a Stephen - but it was the kid in front of us! Wrong Stephen!

We had a blast - there are a lot of CrAzY folks that get onto that show!

Drew Carey was a hoot - but, we would have also enjoyed Bob Barker!

While waiting to get on the show we stopped at a wonderful, fun shopping center were I was able to browse through Anthropology! My favorite shop ever! Urban Outfitters, Forever 21! Ohhhh, it was so much fun! Found some great ear rings, t-shirts, & tights at Forever 21!

Another Great day!!!

Kelcey LOVES cruiser's. There were cruisers all over - everywhere! This set of pictures is for you Kelcley!

The trip wound down! Which always makes me sad!!

We spent the last evening in LA - eating at Cheesecake factory on a terrace enjoying the beautiful LA weather & company! Thanks again Steve for such a perfect trip!

The trip was full of adventures, traffic jams (dodger games - will post pictures!), yelling at Janis (our GPS) - Doris, our other gps was kidnapped! loads of miles in the car, reconnecting with my hubby, & celebrating 20 years with my best friend!!! LOVE YOU STEVE!!!

There was some drama at home with Jacy's soccer team, but Jacy pulled through & proved to everyone what a super, duper person she is with a HUGE heart! We love you Jacy & are so proud of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We missed the boys a LOT! Kelcey came home from college on Thursday & we were sad to miss seeing her, but were able to spend Sat. dinner with her, Sun. morning & eat a yummy Sunday dinner with her. We MISS you Kelcey! Glad you made it home - DRIVING ALL NIGHT! AHHH!! Oh - to be young again!
